More about Sealskin
Sealskin is a deep, rich brown-black at LRV 6 — a dark, sophisticated chocolate-charcoal with a warm undertone that reads expensive rather than heavy. It's a dramatic choice for cabinetry, an accent wall, or an exterior where you want depth with an earthy, warm character.
At this depth it reads nearly black in shadow and shows its warm brown in good light. It pairs beautifully with warm whites, brass, and natural wood. Behr French Roast is its closest cross-brand match.
